WILLIAM G. AND JOSEPH FORMAN, NATCHEZ, TO
SAMUEL FULTON, BATON ROUGE. LS. I p. English.
Richmond.
Dear Sir,
OUT W.G. Forman wrote you two or three weeks since
requesting your aid in procuring permission us to open a store
at Bayou Sara. Not having heard from you, we thought it
probable the letter had not reached you. Mr. Scott now goes
down for the purpose and you will very much oblige us by
doing what may be necessary. The firm of our house will be
the same (William G. & Joseph Forman), and will be
conducted by Mr. Samuel McCaleb. It is our wish to send the
goods down immediately.
Major [Stephen] Minor has just recovered from a severe
bout of the fever. Mrs. M. has also been unwell, but is
mending. Two of the Major's brothers (Joseph and one that
has lately arrived) have been very ill. The former is better
today. The other is still very ill.
We are, dear sir, very respectfully, your most obedient
servants,
WM. G. and JOS. FORMAN
